I enjoyed browsing through your website! I am employed at a Drive-In Theatre that has been family owned and operated since 1960. "The Melody Drive-In" stop by if your ever in northern Indiana for a truly wonderful Drive-In experience! I will do the same when I get out east to visit family in the Mount Pleasant area! Thanks!JJ

This is gonna be my first time going to your drive in. I haven't been to a drive in since I was a young girl. My friend told me about your drive in. So On saturday will be my first of MANY Visits. I miss the good old days. Thankx for still doing what you do to keep the family business going. It means a whole lot to me, brings back many wonderful memories with the family when I was a kid. I will be bringing my daughter of 21 yrs. I don't think she was ever at a drive in before. This ought to be fun for the both of us. Many thankx again!!! ~Barbie

What have you done with the classic neon sign (like in the top left corner of this page) ?? Will you re-vive it and put it back again ?

Reply: The sign is being completely restored, painted and overhauled. I guess you can say, re-built while we had to take it down to be moved for the Penn Dot - North Whitehall, Rt. 309 Improvement Project.

Be assured that it will be put back up for next season or possibly even later this season, once the Rt. 309 & Shankweiler Road improvements are completed,

We came here with 3 other familys and had a blast. We can't wait to bring the rest of our friends next time. We are planning on coming early so we can have a "tail gating party" with our friends.

I just discovered your drive-in while reading a novel by Kasey Michaels. Then I sw this link on my homepage! I wish you were closer to us! In the book, it said you were the oldest drive-in but this link said you were the second oldest. How can that be? Would love to visit!

Reply: Shankweiler's Is America's Oldest continuously operating Drive-In Theatre. It was the second one built and opened in 1934. The First Drive-In opened in 1933 in Camden NJ by Richard Hollingshead and was open only 5 years.

I'm excited about bringing my fiancee to a drive-In. I think tis a shame that there aren't more of them in this area. They are family friendly, and a great place to relax with friends as well. Been here before, so I'm looking forward to the improvements since then. :) Keep up the good work!
